  1. My heart was broken just before Christmas. Restaurants have been the last thing on my mind as they just remind me of some of the good times we shared. Sorry, I don't know what to contribute. I would go more casual in case she feels the same.
  2. Last three dinners (all three being Japanese is purely coincidence)... 1. Kingyo (871 Denman Street, Vancouver) First time visit. One of the things I noticed right away while sitting at the sushi bar was the big grin on the chef's face. He was thouroughly enjoying his job and you could tell as he joked with other staff and customers. When the guy making your food likes his job that much I feel it's good indication I am going to get a quality meal from him. Plus it's just pleasant to see someone smile. I managed to sample a good selection of the offerings and standouts for me included Tokyo sukiyaki, grilled beef tongue and stone unagi bowl. 2. Kitanoya Guu with Garlic (1698 Robson Street, Vancouver) I have been a patron here for some time now. Kitanoya Guu with Garlic is one of my favorites in the city for izakaya. The assorted oden has always been a favorite and I have yet to dig into a better kaki-mayo-yaki. I am also impressed with their efforts in introducing new items to the menu. 3. Samurai Japanese Restuarant (1108 Davie Street, Vancouver) I have also been visiting Samurai for many years, usually on my lunchbreaks as I work nearby. Decent quality fish in massive cuts for very good prices. I like the katsudon on a rainy day.
  3. What is going on with this place?? To my knowledge it has never opened it's doors on Denman but it has been sitting vacant for what, a few months?
  4. My korean gf will not eat this dish as she thinks it's disgusting but I would like to give it a try. Looks like something to put on my to-do list for when I travel to Seoul.
  5. What I like about the Naam is that it's a healthy alternative at 2:15 am when I have nothing in the fridge. This place is a lifesaver for uni students, with relatively cheap, healthy eats arriving in good-sized portions. Service has been disastrous in the past however.
